In the book: June's mother had a rosewood table in China. She tried to bring it along when she fled the city with the twins, but had to abandon it. It is not specified what kind of wood the aunts' modern mahjong table was made of, but it could have been rosewood -- I couldn't tell. Walnut is also a good choice.
